Getting tired of chasing regular deer units and wondering what can be expected from the cactus buck hunt. Success rates are 40-60% which is decent, but curious if most of those are smallish or are some decent sized bucks killed? I don’t need a 180” buck to be satisfied. Just a decent cactus buck would be interesting. Or do most people just shoot the first buck in velvet they see?
I have done a search and seen some decent bucks were killed in the past. Is that consistent or has quality gone down over time?
Also success rates were in the 60% range. Now in 40-45% range last couple of years. Is this a real downward trend, or just a couple of down years?
